Formerly a topical portal studying the brain which collected and imaged 1000 human brains, the Brain Observatory has partnered with the Institute for Brain and Society to build virtual laboratories that will feed directly into the database of images and knowledge created in the context of the Human Brain Library. The Brain Observatory will also host exhibits, conferences, and events aimed at promoting a heightened awareness of brain research and how its results can benefit personal brain fitness and mental health.

http://grey.colorado.edu/emergent

emergent is a comprehensive, full-featured neural network simulator that allows for the creation and analysis of complex, sophisticated models of the brain in the world. With an emphasis on qualitative analysis and teaching, it also supports the workflow of professional neural network researchers. Its high level drag-and-drop programming interface, built on top of a scripting language that has full introspective access to all aspects of networks and the software itself, allows one to write programs that seamlessly weave together the training of a network and evolution of its environment without ever typing out a line of code. Networks and all of their state variables are visually inspected in 3d, allowing for a quick visual regression of network dynamics and robot behavior. This same 3d world sports a highly accurate Newtonian physics simulation, allowing you to create rich robotics simulations (for example, a car). As a direct descendant of PDP (1986) and PDP (1999), emergent has been in development for decades. In the most recent versions available strive to distill it down to its essential elements. Those that take the time to learn the best practices will be rewarded with the ability to create and understand the most complicated neural models ever published.

http://www.nitrc.org/projects/vmagnotta/

A Diffusion Tensor fiber tracking software suite that includes streamline tracking tools. The fiber tracking includes a guided tracking tool that integrates apriori information into a streamlines algorithm. This suite of programs is built using the NA-MIC toolkit and uses the Slicer3 execution model framework to define the command line arguments. These tools can be fully integrated with Slicer3 using the module discovery capabilities of Slicer3. NOTE: All new development is being managed in a github repository.

http://cobre.mrn.org/megsim/

Realistic simulated MEG datasets ranging from basic sensory to oscillatory sets that mimic functional connectivity; as well as basic visual, auditory, and somatosensory empirical sets. The simulated sets were created for the purpose of testing analysis algorithms across the different MEG systems when the truth is known. MEG baseline recordings were obtained from 5 healthy participants, using three MEG systems: VSM/CTF Omega, Elekta Neuromag Vectorview, 4-D Magnes 3600. Simulated signals were embedded within the CTF and Neuromag 306 baseline recordings (4-D to be added). Participant MRIs are available. Averaged simulation files are available as netcdf files. Neuromag 306 averaged simulations are also available in fif format. Also available: single trials of data where the simulated signal is jittered about a mean value, continuous fif files where the simulated signal is marked by a trigger, and simulations with oscillations added to mimic functional connectivity.
